Day 10 - Please Help

[hope4good]

Well I am on day 10 feeling like there is no end in sight.  I still have anxiety, can't sleep even 5 minutes without a ambien and my stomach hurts like hell.  I feel like death but worse.  I feel like there is no end in sight.  Its not like I haven't tried to get better.  I run in the morning, try to keep busy and pray.  I have went through withdrawals before but I usually felt better by day 5.  Not this time.  I don't know how much longer I can take this.  I get anxiety so bad during the day I end up punching or hitting my head against the wall.  Please help me.  I don't think I will ever be better again. PLEASE HELP!! Any advise or comments are greatly appreciated.

Hope,

They are amino acids and a natural seratonin. Good for the brain. Check the thomas Recipe page here. They really work! Are you running while it's still dark? Try running in the sunshine and you'll catch natural Vitamin D which is also great for mind & soul. Afterall....this is about our souls, Right? Good music seems to stimulate the soul as well.

Please don't give up. I was where you are only a few days ago and I  promise you it gets better! I'm not claiming that I feel like Fred Flintstone andthat YABBAYABBAYOWZA!!! yell yet but I kind of feel like Barney Rubble on a decent day.

Toby,
What is l-tyro and 5 htp?  I went to the dr on day 3 and she increased my anti-depression meds & gave me sleeping pills.  I told you I have tried everything.  I keep thinking tomorrow will get better but it doesn't.

Hey Hope.....
I'm 1 week ahead of you from CT off oxy's.
Have you tried L-tyro and 5htp? Did wonders for my anxiety. R&R music seems to help with my mood lately too. After sleeping only a few 2 or 3 hrs a night for the last 2 1/2 weeks I've slept for 7-8 hrs the last two nights. I feel like a deer in the headlights. Sleep will come.
Give it a few more days. If sleep doesn't come and your anxiety is still high then perhaps a trip to your doctor is in order but I think you'll find you'll be feeling MUCH better very shortly.

Whatever you do.....don't pick up!

Toby
